GREED ===== This is Greed, a GROGGS reader for Emacs. If you don't know what GROGGS is, see this URL: http://www.groggs.group.cam.ac.uk/ Requirements ------------ You will need Emacs installed. GNU Emacs and XEmacs should both work. If you have a choice between a MULE and a non-MULE version, you should use the MULE version. Very old versions of Emacs may not work. Aquamacs is not currently supported. Installation ------------ There are three ways you can install Greed. .deb Installation ----------------- Use this method if you are using a Debian, Ubuntu or similar system and are the system administrator. Either get the .deb from the web site, or build it from source as follows: debian/rules build fakeroot debian/rules install In either case install it as follows: sudo dpkg -i ../groggs-greed-*.deb Greed should then be available to all users (regardless of which version of Emacs they use), perhaps after they have restarted their Emacs. System-wide Installation ------------------------ Use this method if you are the system administrator of a non-.deb-based system: To install manually: ./configure or if that does not correctly guess where to put files on your installation: ./configure --with-emacs=EMACS-PROGRAM \ --with-lispdir=/path/to/site-lisp \ --with-infodir=/path/to/info In either case, then: make sudo make install Each user that wants to use Greed should then add the following line to their ~/.emacs file: (autoload 'greed "greed" "Read Groggs" t) If you want to support multiple versions of Emacs then you will probably have to make multiple installations of Greed. You can remove the Greed installation as follows: sudo make uninstall Personal Installation --------------------- Use this method if you are no the system administrator of the system you want to read GROGGS from. ./configure --prefix=$HOME --with-dot-emacs make make install The 'make install' phase will update your ~/.emacs file. Omit the --with-dot-emacs option if you don't want it to do this. You can remove the Greed installation as follows: make uninstall Using Greed ----------- Greed needs to know your e-mail address, which should be stored in the variable `user-mail-address'. If this is incorrect (type `C-h v user-mail-address RET' to see the value of the variable) you'll need to change it, for instance by typing: M-x customize-variable RET user-mail-address RET and following the instructions in the customization buffer.
